WC: 938
Before they got the chance to do much more, they had only one more day on their trip before being called home. Unaware of what was going on, just that it sounded urgent. Their manager and Chan, bless them, made sure they were packed and ready to go from across the way. Jisung laughed at Minho who rolled his eyes but knew they were only looking out for them.
Jisung also knew it was good they'd had a day, as they might have had a couple of follow-up rounds. Minho was a little sore and might have had a little limp. Something Jisung had to continually point out. Which had them wrestle on the bed, ending in a light make-out session. Cuddling on the bed, before finally getting up to make their way to the airport.
Chan and their manager were the ones to pick them up, surprising them. Heading back to the house, the rest of the kids were there waiting for them. Moved their bags to their rooms, coming back out to the living room.
"What was the rush for us to come back? We had one more day?"
The manager rolled his eyes, "You are fine. You can have another vacation. We got word last night that everything is a go again. So, we were given the go-ahead to start a comeback. Since we are one of the only groups in the company that suffered only minorly, they are expecting you to step up and take the lead."
"They want us to see if the people are ready?" Changbin asked
The manager turned his gaze at him, "Yeah, it has been several months since the incident. From what we are hearing, people are ready for new music. People are ready for Stray Kids, so starting tomorrow we will start planning your next mini album."
"Do we not get a say in this?" Seungmin questioned
Shaking his head, "No, the decision was made before I had the chance to become involved or ask your group."
Cocking his head, Jisung looked to the group. "Why do a mini album? Why not go all out for our fans, we've seen how they struggled with this. We've gone cold on socials, and barely given updates. Let's make this one of our biggest comebacks."
"Ji, you're right. We love making music and sharing because it is soothing. Let's do it." Chan said
Rather than start the next day, that kicked started a fire. One that had seemed to have been extinguished. Jisung was happy to see how all the members joined in, Minho holding his hand when he was calm. It was wonderful to see how this brought back the passion he'd been suppressing.
Thus, starting yet another new step in this new world. Settling on a quick comeback, having had a comeback in the works. Their vlog set off the start of this season, drawing the attention of their fans and other artists. Once it was announced, other groups followed shortly after. Jisung noticed how Minho had moments through the process when he struggled. Particularly the loud noises. But, what amazed him was that he was working through it. If it was bad enough you'd see him going to him or Chan.
With the comeback in full swing, it was an adjustment. Some programs tried to discuss what had happened, something that was an unspoken agreement among the groups to refuse. While it was bittersweet, Jisung was happy to see other groups. Some missing their members. Giving them extra tight hugs. Watching Minho interact with them, showing sympathy through his eyes. It wasn't just their group that had to put the pieces back together.
While this comeback had no awards, it was a success for the group. However, the company wanted them to begin to start on another comeback. Planning for the new year, giving them time to begin filming videos that would associate with it. Leaving little time for the group or even the couple.
"Sneak out with me tonight," Minho smirked at Jisung, snuggled in their room. It was classed as Minho's, but it hadn't been just his since they moved in.
Jisung rolled his eyes, "You know that Chan will disapprove of it."
"He'll only disapprove if he knows or finds out." Leaning in to kiss his neck, knowing that was his weakness. "Come on jagiya. We haven't more than a moment since we came back, you've been in the studio, or I've been learning choreo."
Groaning softly, gripping on the other's shoulders. "If I say yes, you need to stop that."
"Or what?" Minho's mocking tone had found its way back home
"We won't be leaving, and you'll have another limp. This time you won't be able to explain it away from sitting awkwardly on the airplane."
Hearing him chuckle, "But I haven't had you since Japan jagi."
"Let's go. We can get me some snacks and you can get out of the house like the defiant child you want to be."
"Thank you bugs. I'll make it worth your time once we get home."
Groaning, in a nonsexual manner. Standing up to get away from the horny male, hearing him laugh more. He shook his head, but it was nice to return to some sort of resemblance of a time before the shooting. Shimmying a sweatshirt on, they quietly started heading for the exit. Not realizing they were being followed until they reached the front door, hearing someone clear their throat.
"Where do you think you're going?" Jisung looked to Minho, blaming him for not being able to stop giggling and smacking his ass which resonated in the walls of the house.
Cliffhanger! hehe! thank you for reading! if you celebrate easter have a good one! have a great weekend and eat lots of yummy food :) ~DQ
